いっかいやすみ
At Akita Kurasu, a sake bar in the Akita Station Building.
We were hoping to get a chance to try the Shinmasa, but unfortunately it was SOLD OUT.
I changed my mind and ordered my first A-Sakura. Attracted by the words "recommended," I chose a lukewarm sake, which I usually don't drink! It's nice to be able to try something you wouldn't normally choose ✨.
And what's more, it was a "men's day", which was a nice touch. The price is very reasonable even if you include the iburigakko (pickled ginger)!
This is my first A-Sakura, and the moment I put it in my mouth, the spiciness spreads. I thought the sweetness would be enhanced by the warmed sake, but I was a bit surprised by the powerful spiciness. (Maybe my tongue was numb to it.) But it made me feel warm and fuzzy.
But it made me feel warm and toasty, both physically and mentally.
